About Jan

I'm Jan Greenwell, and I live in Richland, Washington. I've been making things with my hands since 1977. That's twenty years of pottery, quilts since 1992 and beads since 2002. I still love a good challenge quilt.

Quilts that went out into the world

Some quilts stay in the family. Others go where they're needed, or become part of something bigger than one quilter.
